    Hey all,

    Need your help. Today I was off roading and destroyed my rear bumper :(....bummer but on a positive note I can get a new off road bumper :D. What can I replace it with? I have seen some nice off road rear bumpers but I have no idea who builds them. Any suggestions? also what would a new stock bumper cost. My tacoma is an 07.

    Thanx

    I'm going to replace mine with the new plate bumper allpro is coming out with. It looks pretty badass IMO.
    I tweaked my stock rear bumper a little on the passenger side with a light hit while coming off a ledge, so I can see the necessity for a stronger bumper for offroad use.

    Do you want tube or plate.
    AP make the tube and in the process of the plate, Kennesaw make a plate rear, and I gentleman here has designed a plate rear.
    Do a quick search and you will find some rides with both designs. Also check out the members builds.

    Tin foil. When my truck was rearended (illegal alien, drunk driving), the body shop manager stood the bumper on end and bent it in half. Pathetic.

    There was a guy showing off a new steel plate bumper he is producing a couple months back. I think he was from TX? Search and you'll find it.

    That looks pretty nice. Will it take a bump at 0 mph?

    You win. A case of Modelo will arrive shortly.

    His buddy ran into the woods. Luckily, a cop was two cars back pulling someone else over and saw it happen. The good part is the Dakota he was driving was totaled and bled all over the road like a stuck pig.
